Abstract
A comprehensive digestive approach for determining the extractable and leachable metals in pharmaceutical products by inductively-coupled plasma is investigated. This study examines several acid digestion strategies for packaging materials, containers, and formulated products for complete trace metals analysis. Packaging materials, a food product, and a simulated drug product are evaluated for leachable metals by stressing the materials under accelerated stability conditions. Trace metal profiles of 64 elements for these materials are reported.
